Workplace Reset Workshops
High-performing teams require structured recovery as much as sustained effort.
Many professionals function effectively under pressure — until cumulative strain disrupts clarity, focus or cohesion.
High-demand cycles rarely arrive with advance notice. Sustainable performance depends on regulation practices that are already familiar and accessible.
Mrs MacLaughter delivers: Structured, regulation-based sessions designed to interrupt stress patterns and restore collective focus within professional teams across Scotland.
Delivered in-person for mid-sized organisations navigating high-pressure cycles, transition periods and sustained workload demands.
Structured space to put the weight down – and return with clarity
Workplace Stress is Persistent
79% of employees experience moderate to high stress
63% show signs of exhaustion or disengagement
In Scotland, employees report feeling stressed on average 10 days each month – reflecting sustained workplace strain.
Persistent workplace stain affects clarity, communication and performance.
This level of sustained pressure requires structured recovery - not just reactive support
SIGNATURE STRUCTURE RESET
(Recommended starting point)
A complete regulation cycle designed for deeper integration and sustainable behavioural shift.
This structured three-phase progression guides teams from active regulation through shared activation into guided integration, supporting clarity, cohesion and ongoing application
Includes:
30 minutes Regulate
30 minutes Activate
30 minutes Integration
Best for: Teams navigating sustained pressure, transitioning periods or cultural reset moments.
CORE STRUCTURE RESET
A focused introduction to structured regulation and collective activation.
This session interrupts stress patterns and introduces practical tools teams can use immediately within time-limited schedules.
Includes:
30 minutes Regulate
30 minutes Activate
Best for: Teams requiring an immediate reset within constrained timeframes
While many organisations take steps to address stress, only around 50% believe their current wellbeing efforts are effective — indicating a need for structured, sustained approaches that complement existing occupational health support.
SUSTAINED RESET PROGRAMME
A structured progression embedding reset practices over time.
Designed for organisations seeking embedded practice rather than one-off intervention. Combines a Signature Reset with follow-up reinforcement sessions to consolidate learning, strengthen habit formation and maintain collective momentum.
Includes:
Signature 90-minute session
Optional reinforcement sessions
Reinforcement options:
Activate & Integrate – 60 minutes
Activation Booster – 30 minutes
Guided Integration – 30 minutes
Best for: Organisation's seeking measurable cultural reinforcement rather than one-off intervention
Designed for organisations seeking embedded practice rather than one-off intervention
Initial conversations are exploratory and obligation-free
PRACTICAL DELIVERY
Sessions are delivered in-person at your premises across Scotland.
A standard meeting room or training space is sufficient. No specialist equipment is required.
Sessions are designed to integrate within existing training days, staff development programmes or team away-days.
The Focus: Pattern Interruption
This phase uses breath-based circuit breakers to interrupt the body’s acute stress response. Through simple, intentional breathing techniques, staff are supported to stimulate the vagus nerve, helping signal a shift away from fight-or-flight and back toward a more regulated baseline.
This creates an immediate physiological foundation for the session ahead — reducing cognitive load and restoring enough calm and control for engagement to be possible.
REGULATE
The Focus: Biological Re-engagement
Using structured, intentional laughter exercises, the body is encouraged to re-engage its natural mood-regulating systems. Research shows that the brain responds to intentional laughter in much the same way as spontaneous laughter, supporting increased oxygen flow, reduced stress hormones, and the release of feel-good neurochemicals such as endorphins.
This controlled activation helps lift mental fog, restore energy, and create a shared sense of connection — without overstimulation or pressure to perform.
ACTIVATE
The Focus: Nervous-System Consolidation
The session closes with a guided settling practice designed to ground the energy generated during activation. This quiet “landing” phase allows the nervous system to stabilise, helping participants leave in a state of alert composure rather than heightened activation.
During this phase, staff are introduced to simple, practical micro-tools that support recall and reuse of regulation strategies during the working day — enabling the benefits of the session to transfer back into real-world workflow without additional time demand.
